Provision was formed in November of 2000 by Breye 7x and Leslie Hyman, from the ashes of 2 former Industrial acts - Underground Network Intelligence; and Wraith.
Self described as Electronic Dance with an Edge, with over 10 years of experience in former electronic acts; Provision's style infused Classic Progressive Dance, Industrial Dance & Synthpop.
Constantly crossing genres and pushing boundaries with passionate, aggressive songs of lust, love, society, and humanity; filled with pure dance floor emotion, non stop energy, and lyrics that tug at the heart...Provision has crafted what can only be called "The Provision Sound". Truly a formula all their own.
At barely over a year old, Provision performed at Synthcon 2002 where they won Best New U.S. Artist in the American Synthpop Awards; thus solidifying their name and sound in the American Synthpop Scene. Since then, Provision has become known as one of the hardest working electronic acts in America due to their relentless self promotion and dedication in performing live shows with energy, frequency, and winning new fans wherever they go. With 90 live performances, 2 U.S. Tours, and numerous regional tours since April of 2001; the dedication to their fans is evident.
Provision has become known as a staple support act in the electronic music scene performing alongside such acts as Red Flag, Anything Box, Imperative Reaction, The Human League, Cause & Effect, Cut Rate Box, Icon of Coil, System Syn, The Cruxshadows, Assemblage 23, God Module, Cesium 137, CTRL, B!Machine, Solemn Assembly, Moulin Noir, Endif, Rename, Syrian and many more...

A big thank you to all our fans, family and friends that attended the events in the DFW, TEXAS area on June 19th and 20th! Considering it was BFA's first time in TEXAS, the results were amazing!
By popular demand, Back From Ashes will be coming back to Texas in September!
"It was almost a crowd of first time BFA attendees at the venue…it was a crowd of people that heard through promotion the quality of music and felt the passion in the message the MMP and Yvonne were spreading. The ability to reach groups of new crowds and peak interest enough to make them come to a show they have never seen because MMP/Yvonne’s ability to communicate the talent of this group and the promise of a great show. In this industry that statement alone is worth millions! Everyone knows that that is the single most difficult thing for a band to do is to be seen and heard as the talent they are with the over saturated competition that is out there. Yet we all sit here making nothing and LOVING what we do. Because bands like Back From Ashes deserve it."
